TYPES OF FEDERAL FUNDS Federal (Government-owned) funds are of four types, as follows: The general fund is credited with receipts which are not earmarked by law for a specific purpose, and is charged with expenditures that are payable from appropriations (except appropriations of earmarked receipts) and those payable from borrowing. Both in number of items and in amounts, most of the Government's business is transacted through the general fund. Special funds are those which are established to account for receipts that are earmarked by law for a specific purpose. They exclude the funds which carry on a cycle of operations for which there is continuing authority to use the receipts (as described in the next paragraph). Some special funds are subject to annual appropriation by Congress. Others are automatically available under the laws which created the funds. Public enterprise (revolving) funds are those which | finance a cycle of operations, in which the expenditures cluding consolidated working funds) are those which are Intragovernmental revolving and management funds (increated to facilitate financing operations within and between Government agencies. They consist of two typesoperations, like public enterprise funds but with receipts intragovernmental revolving funds which finance a cycle of primarily from within the Government; and management funds which permit the pooling of advance payments from two or more appropriations to carry out certain activities.

Appropriation language is included (3) a narrative statement on program and performance; for the former, not the latter. (4) a schedule of object classification. An exception occurs in the case of certain permanent appropriations and older appropriation accounts on which only a residual balance remains; such accounts of a bureau or independent agency are often combined into a single presentation instead of having separate schedules. Where the obligations fall in a single object class, the classification is identified in the program and financing schedule, rather than in a separate schedule. For revolving funds, there are usually two additional schedules covering (5) revenue, expense, and retained earnings; and (6) financial condition. The basic schedules usually exclude supplemental estimates which it is expected will be transmitted to Congress later, for 1965 and 1966; these usually are covered by a separate, brief schedule of program and financing, without appropriation language. However, the 1965 column of the basic schedules include (and identify) supplementals required to meet costs of military and civilian pay increases under recently enacted pay legislation. The 1966 column includes, within the regular schedules, 6 priation acts is printed at the head of each item requiring SALARIES AND EXPENSES For necessary expenses of the Office of Business Economics, [$2,250,000 $2,755,000.
